Congratulations to Will in Year 10 attended the British Rowing Indoor Championships on Saturday 7 December and competed for Myton School in the School Games category.
Athletes from all over the country attend the annual championships to see who is fastest on a rowing machine and Will competed against other Year 10 boys in two categories: the 5-minute test and the 500m test.
In his 5-minute test William rowed a huge 1,423m. This was joint 16th out of 56, which earned him a silver medal in the School Games category, a fantastic result considering many other students were from schools with a long history of rowing (Dulwich School, Sir William Borlase, and King’s School Worcester, to name a few).
William’s 500m test took only 1 minute 34 seconds, earning him a bronze medal, wrapping up a very successful day!
